We're an AI-first engineering team, and we treat that as a discipline, not a shortcut. Every engineer here works with agentic coding tools — Claude Code and Git Hub CoPilot are key drivers in our daily work, which changes the shape of the job:

• You’ll spend more of your time on design, decomposition and review, and less on typing. Agents handle much of the implementation; you own the architecture, the verification and everything that ships.
• We invest in the system that makes AI effective: project context, custom agents and skills, MCP integrations and multi-agent code review. Improving that system is engineering work here, and it’s part of the role.
• Judgment matters more, not less. Knowing when to hand work to an agent — and when not to — is a skill we hire for and grow.
• Skillable’s whole business is proving skills by doing. We hold our own work to the same standard: AI-assisted or not, it isn’t done until it’s verified.

• Design, scope, and decompose complex software features into well-defined implementation plans, leveraging AI-assisted development workflows to accelerate delivery while maintaining engineering rigor.
• Guide and direct AI agents through feature development, serving as the primary architect, reviewer, and decision-maker to frame the problem, set constraints and make the calls that ensure solutions are aligned with business requirements and technical standards.
• Build effective scaffolding that enables AI tools to generate high-quality, maintainable, and scalable code, project context management, reusable skills, agent workflows, prompt frameworks and automated quality checks.
• Drive comprehensive automated testing and verification practices for every feature before release, ensuring unit tests and validation scenarios are tied back to the requirements.
• Own the quality of all delivered software by rigorously reviewing AI-generated output, challenging assumptions, finding the gaps, and validating that solution fully resolves the problem.
• Identify and mitigate risks associated with AI-assisted development, ensuring generated solutions meet expectations for security, maintainability, correctness, and long-term sustainability.
• Continuously raise the team capabilities in AI-driven engineering by improving workflows, tooling, agents and best practices other engineers depend on for quality outcomes.
• Create and maintain documentation of features, design decisions, configurations, and other key technical areas of the application.
• Resolves ambiguity and turns ambiguous problems into defined, scoped work for themselves and others.
• Actively collaborate with other developers, QA engineers, designers, and product experts in a cross-functional scrum team.
